Frequently Asked Questions — F-2 Dependent Visa Visa Wait Time at Kolkata
Why is there no current F-2 Dependent Visa wait time for U.S. Consulate General Kolkata?
The U.S. State Department publishes the wait-time table this page is built from, and it no longer lists an estimate for the F-2 Dependent Visa at U.S. Consulate General Kolkata. The last figure it published was 2 months (~60 days) on September 3, 2026, now 10 days old; we do not present it as a current wait. This does not mean no appointments exist — check the official State Department table and the consulate's booking portal.
Can I apply at a different consulate than my home state?
Yes, US visa applicants in India may apply at any of the 5 consulates regardless of home address. No other Indian consulate currently has a published F-2 Dependent Visa wait time to compare against, so check the official State Department table before choosing where to apply.
Does this include visa processing time after the interview?
No. A wait time figure covers the wait until your interview appointment only, never the processing that follows it. Visa processing after the interview takes an additional 3–10 business days in most F-2 Dependent Visa cases, such as administrative processing for work and student visas.
How often does WaitDelta update wait time data?
WaitDelta checks wait time data twice weekly against official U.S. Department of State scheduling records. The last update date is shown at the top of this page.
What happens to my appointment if wait times change after I book?
Your existing appointment date is not affected by wait time changes after booking. Wait time figures reflect availability for new bookings only. Reschedule your appointment, if you need an earlier date and shorter slots become available.
